København Ø

The Analytical Chemistry research group at the Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, Faculty of Science at University of Copenhagen is offering a 3-year PhD scholarship in environmental analytical chemistry with focus on non-target screening analysis of wastewater using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography mass spectrometry commencing 01.10.2021 or as soon as possible thereafter. The place of employment will be at Campus Frederiksberg in central Copenhagen.

Description of the scientific environment
The Analytical Chemistry Group hosts the Research Centre for Advanced Analytical Chemistry (https://plen.ku.dk/english/research/env_chem_phys/ac/). The centre operates on multiple levels in the value chain, going from fundamental research to education and application of analytical methods, often in collaboration with industry. We are a very dynamic group of approx. 30 people working on various aspects of analytical chemistry, from basic analytical chemistry to chemical fingerprinting of a wide variety of sample matrices. We work with projects in Denmark as well as abroad and work closely with a number of industrial partners.

Project description
The PhD project will focus on development and application of comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography mass spectrometry platforms for wastewater analysis. The PhD project is anchored in the Vandalf project funded by Innovation Fund Denmark (https://plen.ku.dk/english/research/env_chem_phys/ac/research-projects/vandalf/).

The position will mainly focus on chemical fingerprinting of wastewater samples with link to toxicological analyses of the samples. The position may also involve establishing workflows for chromatographic and mass spectral signal processing of the resulting data, multivariate statistical analysis and/or compound identification using chemoinformatics. Sample preparation, chemical analysis and data processing and interpretations will be conducted in strong collaboration with the project partners.

Principal supervisor is Professor, Jan H Christensen, Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, [email protected], Direct Phone: +45 35332456.

Scholarship and terms of employmentfor integrated MSc and PhD

PhD grant portions (Ph.D.SU klip)
In the period up to the completion of the MSc programme (up to three years), the student is entitled to so-called PhD grant portions. The grant portions are financed by the grant donor but not by the Danish State Educational Grant and Loan Scheme Agency (as is the case for the ordinary study grant portions on the BSc and MSc programmes). They are called PhD grant portions because this kind of remuneration is regulated and described in the Executive Order on the State Educational Grant and Loan Scheme in Denmark (SUbekendtgørelsen), and because the value of a PhD grant portion corresponds to the value of an ordinary Danish study grant portion. Students are awarded 48 PhD grant portions during the period of their MSc and PhD studies.

48 PhD grant portions at DKK 6,243 each, corresponding to DKK 299,664 (approx. €39,955).

'Duty work'
As a supplement to the PhD grant portions, the student may, in accordance with the collective agreement of the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations (AC), be offered 'duty work'. In the period up to the completion of the MSc programme, students performing 'duty work' are paid by the hour. UCPH has decided to offer students on integrated MSc and PhD schemes 150 hours of 'duty work' per year during Part A of the programme (until two years of the combined programme of study remain). 'Duty work' during Part A if it has a duration of three years: 450 hours at a rate of DKK 221.34 (+ 12.5% holiday pay), corresponding to DKK 112,052 (approx. €14,940)

For further information about Part A please see: https://www.science.ku.dk/phd/studystructure/integratedphd/

Salary in accordance with the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional

Associations (AC)
In the period after the completion of the MSc programme, the student is employed as a PhD scholar and is remunerated in accordance with the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations (AC). The scheme is arranged in such a way that students graduate from the MSc programme at a time when there are two years left of the integrated programme. For this reason, the salary must be paid for a period of two years in accordance with the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations (AC). The amounts specified include a supplement locally agreed upon as well as pension contributions: Salary as a PhD scholar: 24 months at a rate of DKK 32,304 (including pension contributions and supplement), corresponding to DKK 775,311 (approx. €103,374).
